Upholstery Cleaning
The upholstery cleaning industry has evolved considerably over the last decade. There are many different fabrics and fibers used today. Some fabrics today even use a combination of numerous fibers. It is very important to apply the proper method of cleaning to the fabric to prevent damage to the fabric.
Most fabrics today fall into one of two categories, natural fiber or synthetic fiber. Natural fibers can be protein or cellulosic based. Protein based natural fibers are materials such as silk and wool. Cellulosic natural fibers are fabrics such as cotton and linen. Natural fibers are most often going to be Foam Cleaned or Dry Cleaned. Synthetic fibers are usually cleaned with hot water extraction (steamed cleaned).
Professional technicians today are faced with the challenge of properly identifying fiber and applying the proper cleaning method. Some upholstery manufactures have cleaning tags under the cushions. These tags can usually identify the method of cleaning required for that fabric. Many carpet cleaners are apprehensive in regards to cleaning upholstery because inexperience can lead to ruined fabric.
